Young Girl Collapses on Stage at Katy Perry’s Lifetimes Tour in Detroit

Katy Perry’s latest stop on her Lifetimes Tour took a dramatic turn.

Perry, 40, picked out a handful of young fans from the audience to join her band for a rendition of “The One That Got Away” during her Sunday, August 3, show at the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan. However, the moment proved overwhelming for one fan, a young girl named McKenna.

Footage posted via social media shows the moment McKenna collapsed on stage after as the singer handed her — and three other young concertgoers — shakers. Perry immediately leapt into action, kneeling beside McKenna as she was checked by members of Perry’s team and event staff. The crowd, meanwhile, rallied in support of the young fan, chanting her name.

After McKenna was taken offstage, Perry hugged the other three fans and led a prayer, per Billboard.

“Dear God, we pray for McKenna, that she will come back fully and brighter and better than ever. Amen,” she said.

“It’s so much. Sometimes you’re so brave and you can get on stage, and it’s overwhelming. I understand that feeling,” she said, before returning to her set and performing “The One That Got Away.”

Later during the show, while performing “Roar,” Perry gave fans an update on the girl’s condition. “McKenna’s doing great, by the way,” she said, per Billboard, and shouted McKenna’s name again at the end of the song.

Sunday’s Detroit show marked Perry’s return to the U.S. after several concerts in Canada, where the singer sparked romance rumors with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Perry and Trudeau, 53, and Perry were spotted together in public numerous times in Montreal on Monday, July 28, per pictures obtained by TMZ. They were first seen taking a stroll in Montreal’s Mount Royal Park, accompanied by Perry’s dog. The pair later dined together at restaurant Le Violon.

Two days later, Trudeau appeared enchanted by Perry as he watched her perform on stage at the Belle Centre in Montreal. Per footage circulating online, Trudeau was seen nodding along to Perry’s music and watching the stage intently.
